I just rescued a baby humming bird...my cats were paying with it..Hes not that injured he just has a broken wing and cant fly...i dont know what to do with it..and advice? Please help...And where can you get nectar>?_?
I found a hummingbird today on my way back from school. I think its wing is injured. I tried calling around looking for some rehabilitation facilities but they were all closed for the day because it was after five and its a friday. Any tips you can give me? I gave it some sugar water and took it outside to the plant I found it by. It fed on some of the nectar. I am not sure how often I should be feeding it though. It is already dark out.
@TheDebster05 Hi, I'm so sorry I did not see your post; I never go on here! Did the hummingbird make it? Mine flew out of the sunroof of my car one day while at a convenience store. I fed her honey and water, natural lemonade with sugar, and water with sugar out of a plastic syringe. I "winged" it! Had no idea what I was doing, but couldn't just leave her on my sidewalk to die. She really came to like me, loved to sit in my hand for hours! Very interesting and rewarding experience.
@kingbookeraj Yes the hummingbird did make it. I found a rescue shelter for small birds located only about a half hour away. A couple days after leaving the bird with the lady of the shelter, she wrote back saying it was doing much better and would be released in about two weeks. You are correct in saying it was a rewarding experience, because I was able to see it drink directly from the nectar source as I lifted it up some flowers near the area I found it.
I see the same one each year in Maryland. I recroded it feeding up close. :-) it was pretty

@uaking21 Yeah, I hope she had enough strength to make the migration to Mexico. We did our best to prepare her!!
